Who Is This "Michael Crawford" Rascal???
Michael Crawford has been a pain in Tucson's butt for a long time. He used to be a fixture on the east side, specifically, in the E 22nd St & Old Spanish Trail area. Not being the "worker" type, Michael chose aggressive panhandling to finance his meth adventures. However, thanks to constant pressure by persistent cops and several trips to the Pima County Jail, Michael was broken! He relocated to the south side of Tucson. **I freely admit the southern migration may have been due to the beautiful beehives on the south side...
The above listed booking photo is from January 13, 2024 when he was arrested for, you guessed it, aggressive panhandling! Young Michael was confronted by an especially salty Tucson Cop by the name of Scott "The Loathsome Brute" Morken. Michael must have sensed the long arm of the law closing in so naturally, he picked up a handful of rocks and threw them at Officer Morken! The fight was on and as you can see, MIchael got beat like a rented mule. It wasn't a completely one-sided victory, Michael clearly blocked several of Officer Morken's strikes with his face. :/
